Holmegaard Værk — Attraction in Naestved Municipality

We went with the intention to see the displays, perhaps seeing unique art work by individual artists and making a custom handprint in glass. We ended up making our own sandblasted glasses and that was super fun even with small (or big) kids. There are limited carpark space close to the entrance and a 'tourist' carpark which is a bit of a walk away. There was no sign pointing towards the closest carpark but good to know if you have company who appreciate short distance to entrance. We had to asked at the information to get ticket, there were no clear signs that tickets are needed. and there were also no indication where to start the tour, we had to trace the numbers on the floor. Also, remember to bring your own headset if you want to have audio guide. One of the young staff at atelier (where we can make our own glass etc) sit amongst the visitors and had we not been really determined to make the diy glasses, we would have left. Tips: they wear black poloT uniform, just not so obvious to my untrained eyes. The exhibits are fine, but not really anything to shout about. Workshop staffs are friendly and informative. Generally it's a place with many potential that can be better. I recommend the place but there's certainly still room for...

Ceramic and glass exhibitions. The place is bigger than you think. They Saturday we visited, there was a good combination of exhibitions, events (glass blowing, music playing and personal antique evaluation), kids workshops, cafe and interesting museum shop.

Kids went on a treasure hunt and got a 'treasure' to take home. There's a creation room where you can decorate your glass, bottle, vase, whatever they have on the shelf two sell at reasonable prices. Our kids got s couple of glasses (35 kr each), decorated them using a set of stickers/cutouts (30 kr), they can make their own cutouts too. The glass gets sandblasted and it's done, a customised glass. You can also use small drills to decorate the glass by hand.

Good day for the parents and kids.

Few tips. There's a Netto supermarket on the way to the museum, pop in there and get some snacks for the kids and yourself.

There are two car parks. You'll have to pay for both. One is next to the museum, the other is a few minutes walk. So if you have short legs, try the one...

If you are interested in real Danish history with respect to the amazing works of glass, art and ceramics that are closely intertwined with almost every kitchen in Denmark from the craft persons to super special requests from Queens and royalty this is a must do visit.

The cafe and facilities are wonderful with a gift shop, but more, including literature, take away history and of course treasures for any occasion.

The restaurant was fully booked for lunch so check that if you intend to take a table for a meal otherwise healthy choices were back at the cafe.

A glass blowing demonstration captivated us for some time. Seeing a small team work together in an open workshop creating maybe a masterpiece is exciting as much as it is an opportunity to realise the effort and energy that goes into...
